A French comedy with heart and humor in the vein of *The Intouchables*, inspired by a true story. Fréd, a teacher with 15 years of experience, is suspended following an unfortunate incident with a student. To make matters worse, her personal life is also falling apart. At a friend's urging, she joins a youth support program and becomes a mentor to 17-year-old Adam—a boy with a volatile temper and a troubled record. They face a challenge that sounds like a punishment devised by someone without mercy: a three-month hike to Santiago de Compostela—with no phone, no internet, and a mandatory daily distance of 25 kilometers. She is trying to leave her past behind; he is trying to learn to control his anger and come to terms with painful memories.
